CONVERSATI­ONS THAT MATTER

-

Conversati­ons That Matter features Kathy McLaughlin, who was one or two heartbeats from death and survived.

Her journey is harrowing, it’s gut wrenching, it stretches your imaginatio­n to the brink and leaves you wondering if you could have survived.

What did she learn along the way and how did it change her? Did it change her philosophy, her routine, her priorities?

Kathy says the biggest lesson and hardest challenge is “being in the moment. How do you choose to act at this particular moment in time to be fully present to whatever presents itself?

“And for me, I was never about that. “And I still struggle with it, and then I think, OK, that’s not why I’m here, that’s not why I survived.”

Conversati­ons That Matter is a partner program with the Centre for Dialogue at Simon Fraser University. Join veteran Broadcaste­r Stuart McNish each week for these important and engaging Conversati­ons shaping our future.
